Semiconductor Test

Semiconductor Test

Semiconductor chip designs are constantly increasing in complexity, which requires more advanced test systems to characterize performance and increases the cost of test. The National Instruments software-defined approach to instrumentation gives semiconductor engineers the ability to lower their overall cost of chip test by adopting flexible hardware platforms, such as PXI, and scalable software, such as NI LabVIEW and NI TestStand. Today, many leading semiconductor companies have adopted National Instruments solutions for testing chips that range from analog-to-digital-converters (ADCs) to power management ICs (PMICs) in validation, characterization, and production environments.
